In Loving Memory of Manuel Vienes

Our hearts are heavy as we remember Manuel Vienes, whose life was tragically cut short following a devastating crash on Rocky Run Road. His passing has left family, friends, and loved ones grieving the loss of someone whose presence will be deeply missed.

According to authorities, the crash occurred Thursday after 25-year-old Nicholas Proctor was allegedly driving in and out of lanes along Rocky Run Road. The resulting collision claimed the life of Manuel Vienes.

Records indicate that Proctor was allegedly under the influence at the time of the crash. He was arrested overnight and is now facing several serious charges connected to the incident. Those charges include felony death by vehicle, hit and run causing serious injury or death, driving while impaired, reckless driving to endanger, and failure to maintain lane control.

Following his arrest, Proctor was taken to the Onslow County Jail, where he is being held under a $50,000 bond. The criminal case remains subject to the legal process, while authorities continue to address the circumstances surrounding the fatal collision.

For Manuel’s loved ones, however, the focus is on the profound loss left behind. A sudden death can bring immense heartbreak and countless difficult emotions to those closest to the person who has passed.

Manuel’s memory will live on through the people who knew him, loved him, and shared meaningful moments with him. His life was far more than the circumstances of his death, and his loved ones will continue to carry his memory in their hearts.

May Manuel Vienes rest in peace, and may his family and friends find strength, comfort, and peace as they mourn this heartbreaking loss.
